Adults Living with Type 1

[beachbum91]

I live near Orlando, FL and am having trouble finding a decent doctor for my type 1 diabetes. I tried out a doctor and they were horrible, never helped and just plain rude. Now I'm nervous and picky as to finding a new one.

Any advice on how to find a good one?

Can you get to USF in Tampa?

That's about an hour and a half drive for me :/

If you have insurance it may depend on who they will allow you to see. You're on the east side? USF has a great endo dept connected to the med school.

If going to USF will help you meet up with a great Endo team, then I would do it. Hey it is only 4 times a year and I think the drive would

be worth it. That is, if it will benefit you. It is worth a try at least.
